Associations Among Minority Stress, Relaxation and Tension-Reduction Motives, and Cannabis Use Among a Sample of Sexual and Gender Minority Adults in Oklahoma.
Article in Substance use & addiction journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionDespite well-documented cannabis use disparities among sexual and gender minority (SGM; vs heterosexual and/or cisgender) adults, less is known regarding associations of minority stressors, cannabis use motives, and cannabis use outcomes among SGM individuals.
methodsData were from a repeated online cross-sectional survey of SGM-identifying adults in Oklahoma (n = 430; 67% female). Multivariable regressions examined associations of: (1) minority stressors (ie, discrimination, internalized stigma, community acceptance/safety, time spent in SGM spaces) with relaxation/tension-reduction cannabis use motives; and (2) minority stress factors and relaxation/tension-reduction motives with cannabis use behaviors (ie, past-month use, daily/near-daily use, possible cannabis use disorder [CUD]) among females and males, separately.
resultsAmong female SGM adults, discrimination was associated with more relaxation/tension-reduction motives, which were associated with higher odds of daily/near-daily use and possible CUD. Among male SGM adults, time spent in SGM spaces was associated with more relaxation/tension-reduction motives, which were associated with higher odds of daily/near-daily use and possible CUD.
conclusionFindings elucidate associations of discrimination (for female SGM adults) and time spent in SGM spaces (for male SGM adults) with more relaxation/tension-reduction cannabis use motives and associations of relaxation/tension-reduction use motives with worse cannabis use outcomes. Findings provide preliminary insights into the potential need for community-level interventions aimed at reducing discrimination and individual-level interventions aimed at promoting healthier coping behaviors in response to stress for SGM adults.
